Remarks

Use the Items property (collection) to get a MenuItemCollection object that contains all the menu items in a Menu control. This collection is commonly used to quickly iterate through all the menu items, or to access a specific menu item.

The Items collection can also be used to programmatically manage the menu items. You can add, insert, remove, and retrieve MenuItem collection objects. Any updates to the collection will automatically be reflected in the Menu control after the next round trip to the server.
